Newspaper claims suspect transformed into a goat

LAGOS, Nigeria ? One of Nigeria's biggest daily newspapers reported that police implicated a goat in an attempted automobile theft. In a front-page article on Friday, the Vanguard newspaper said that two men tried to steal a Mazda car two days earlier in Kwara State, with one suspect transforming himself into a goat as vigilantes cornered him.

The paper quoted police spokesman Tunde Mohammed as saying that while one suspect escaped, the other transformed into a goat as he was about to be apprehended.

The newspaper reported that police paraded the goat before journalists, and published a picture of the animal.

Police in the state couldn't immediately be reached for comment.

Belief in black magic is widespread in Nigeria, particularly in far-flung rural areas

If it was claimed that the goat then walked on water or turned water into wine would it still be so funny?

I don't believe the story. no one would rather spend the rest of his life in a cage as a goat than be caught for a minor theft.

Other people people in Allah, Jehova or god.
In Africia the belief in witches exist, albinos are hunted by spiritual leaders and so on.

I wouldn't be suprised if the goat have a symbolic reference to something Tunde Mohammed believes in.
